Plymouth residents can tour for no charge so we never had to pay but I think the costs were some where around $6 for adults / kids 6-12 $2. There were discounts for AAA, military and students. Also I know there was a large group that came in after us and where charged a smaller flat fee than a pp fee. Again not totally sure on price but it really is a great spot.
How and where does one buy tickets for the tour? We will be visiting Plymouth in July and am so looking forward to visiting my ancestors home with my husband and granddaughters!

he Jabez Howland House is the only existing house in Plymouth where Pilgrims actually lived. The original 17th century two-story timber framed house consisted of the porch, hall and hall chamber. John Howland and his wife, Elizabeth Tilley Howland spent their winters here with their son Jabez and his family. After John’s death at age 80, and the fire that destroyed their Rocky Nook farm, Elizabeth lived here until 1680 when Jabez sold the house. It was a private residence until 1912 when it was purchased for a museum.
